When I first grabbed this I had no idea it was actually a children’s album. In fact, even after listening to a couple songs I was still oblivious.

I guess the first song 7 8 9 (get it?) shoulda tipped me off but as a fan of quirky bands like They Might Be Giants I found myself actually liking some of the songs, which is kinda the point.

It’s music that parents can play for their kids without going completely insane. Absolutely no insufferable choruses like “SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS!”

“We wrote just as hard for these as we did for any other record, ” Bassist Jim Creeggan told Billboard.com. And it shows. There are a total of 24 songs, my favorite being The Ninjas (now playing in the Jukebox).
